If Happ/Yankees doesn’t actually close, I will roll back the standings to account for points earned.

If one of you guys could sign the rest of these free agents so I can put this contest to bed, I’d appreciate it. ;)

-
@hoffridge Yes. If only to put us all out of their misery.

And that’s a wrap!
Congratulations to randysteinman for making five correct picks! He wins the 20,000 credit prize.
I will have awarded everyone’s credits by the end of the day. You can check your credit balance on the Scouting page.
I may change up how we run the contest next year, as I (and my co-conspirators), were not expecting to have five free agents unsigned after the start of Spring training. There is also talk of reducing the number of free agents in the contest as some found making 25 picks arduous.
Thank you everyone for participating! It was a fun contest to administer (I wish Harper and Machado signed, but what can you do?) and I look forward to running it next year.
Thanks,

Congrats Randy! Thank you everyone!

Wow, that’s awesome! Thanks Jeremy! Although, we’ll probably have to put an asterisk beside this win. It feels kinda tainted without Harper and Machado being signed before the contest ended. But I will def put the 20,000 points to good use somewhere down the road. Keep up the great work!
